Mary snapped back to reality when Sam went past her. Her ideal Heaven of being with her little boys vanished and the Michael issue soon rose to the surface again.

"Michael."

"Not a threat." Patrick says.

"Who are you?" Mary repeated her question from earlier.

"Patrick."

"Patrick weird." Dean mumbled into his mom's leg.

Patrick huffed a laugh.

"Pat is good. He's been a real help." Rowena says.

"Help?" Mary realized that something is wrong with Dean. "Jack can you take Dean out."

Jack stands up. He takes Dean's hand.

Adult conversation." He says to the child.

Dean groans. His parents always have adult conversations. He lets Jack lead him out of the room.

Mary narrows her eyes at the two witches.

"What happened? Why is Dean a...a...kid?"

Rowena puts on a fake smile.

"Its started with a wee spell."

Elsewhere Sam sits on his bed with his head in his hands. Cas opens the door.

"Sam?"

The angel frowns at the defeated look on the younger hunter's face. He saw how crushed Sam was when Dean didn't remember him.

"I just wanted a win." Sam sits up and runs his fingers along his hair. "One win. To get Michael out for good. He's gone for now but I got a brother who doesn't remember me. I..."

"Sam." Cas sighs. "I understand this must be hard for you. These last few days have been tough. With Michael, Dean, the hunters."

"Don't."

Sam didn't want to relive the guilt again. The death of the hunters is still fresh to him.

Cas places his hand on Sam's shoulder.

"We will get Dean back."

"When the curse goes."

"We'll be ready to take Michael out. Right now we should cherish the innocence." He smiles. "It is nice to see him happy."

Sam thought back to Dean how happy he was to see Mary.

He nods.

"I guess you're right. Rowena is here if anything happens."

"What about the other witch?"

"I'll...I'll handle him."

"Okay." Cas goes to the door. "You want to come?"

"Uh later. Mom needs this time." He smiles a little. "She really needs it."

"Okay. If you need anything."

"Yeah Cas I know."

Cas nods and leaves. He walks into the main room and sees Jack singing a song to Dean. Dean curls up on Jack's lap and smiles wide at him.

Cas smiled at the scene.

"I remember your mother used to sing that song to you."

Jack's voice trails off as he looks at Cas.

"You do?"

"Yes. Your mother had a lovely voice."

Jack smiles.

"She did."

Jack frowns as he thought of her. He saw her in Heaven but it wasn't enough. Jack missed her. He thought about her almost every day. Cas noticed the sadness in the former nephilim's eyes.

"I know you miss her." Cas frowned.

"At least she's in a better place." Jack smiled.

He turns away and continues singing.

Later on Mary had Dean on her lap. Mary was not mad when Rowena told the news. She was more worried than anything else. Patrick assured them Michael has taken Dean's place on being in lockdown. Mary's worries vanished when Dean crawled on to her lap and grasped on to her lock of hair.

This curse, Mary saw it as a blessing. It was so nice to see her son oblivious to the supernatural world.

Telling Dean about Michael Mary refused. She feared if Dean is aware he could start searching and lose control. She couldn't lose her little boy again. Everyone respected her wishes but remained on alert in case anything happens.

Sam walks in and spots Patrick drinking a bottle of beer. He looks at Sam. The witch looked like a child who got caught by their parents.

"Rowena said I can have a beer."

"Oh don't worry." Sam sips his beer and leans on the table. "Michael is definitely gone?"

"Yes." Patrick nodded.

"You can't do nothing to bring Dean's memory back?"

"No. You just have to hope."

Sam looks over at his mom sitting on the chair with Dean in her arms with Jack sitting next to her. Even Cas is smiling down at the child.

"I guess your work is done." Sam faces the witch. "You can go." Sam frowns when he saw Patrick still standing there. "You can go." Sam repeats.

"Oh...right." Patrick looks round the room. "You sure you don't need assistance?"

"We got Rowena."

Patrick knew by that tone of voice Sam wanted him out. The polite way of saying get out.

"My kidnapper is letting me go." Patrick joked. "Plot twist. Um...can I go and see Rowena."

"Finish your beer then go." Sam put coldly.

Patrick eyes him up and down.

"You asked me well forced me to bring your brother back. Me and Rowena did that. We went into his head I went over my limit for you Winchester. Dean is back and you are still angry. Yes Dean is different yes Dean is mentally 4 but it is still your brother. At least you don't have a big bad archangel destroying the world...but rooms might get destroyed kids are messy." He smirks and gulps the last of his beer. "Lets hope our paths do not cross again. I am still going to talk to Ro."

He brushes past the hunter and shouts out the witch's name.

"Yes?" Rowena answers.

"I'm going."

"Now?"

"Hmm. Sam had enough of me."

"The spell?"

"Wait it out. Dean is back so it shouldn't be as bad as before. Sam trusts you not me."

"You did give him the clap." Patrick scoffs at that. Rowena slips a paper in his pocket. "If you ever want to meet up for a drink." She smiled.

Patrick nods and smiles.

"Would love to."

He leans forward and kisses her on the cheek. Rowena had to hold in the giggle that wanted to come out.

"Bye Ro."

He goes up the stairs.

"Where is he going?" Jack asks.

When the door closes behind the Irish witch, Sam says.

"He has stuff to do. He had to go."

"Oh."

"Hmm." Rowena sighed.

Rowena turns away and goes in the guest room.

Its been a week since Dean came back. He and Mary were together constantly. Sam did try the brother talk again but the confusion on Dean's face caused Mary to drop the subject. She said Sam is a friend of hers. She insisted the explanation about who Sam really is should wait. Sam wasn't happy but he respected his mom's wishes.

Dean did ask for his dad. Mary answered and said.

"Your dad is away on a trip."

Dean trusted his mom so he accepted the answer and after that he wasn't worried.

One day Mary sat with her son and watched him draw.

"Who's that baby?" Mary asked smiling at her son's drawing.

Dean beams at his mom.

"That's you." He points at a drawing with odd shapes and yellow hair.

"That's daddy."

He points at the person next to Mary who had the same body shape but with black hair.

"That's Sam."

He points at the drawing that's the biggest of them all with long brown hair. Mary smiles. She's glad Dean warmed up to Sam. She still needed to explain that Sam is not a friend of hers. He is Dean's brother. However she feared it would trigger something and the adult Dean would be back.

She didn't want that.

Yes she knew that was selfish but she didn't care. This is going to be her only chance on being a mom.

"Cats..iel."

He points at a blob of beige with black hair. Mary's smile widens. Dean did take a liking to the angel jumping around and saying he has his own angel.

"Jack."

He points at a skinny figure with a brown hair and a blue body. Mary nods. Jack has been like a big brother to Dean having him ride on his shoulders, playing tag it was adorable.

"And that's me."

He points at the smallest drawing a little dot with brown hair.

"Its wonderful baby." Mary kisses her son's head. She then furrows her eyebrows and frowns.

"Who is that Dean?"

She points at the figure at the edge of the paper.

"The man in my dreams." Dean answered.

"Man in your dreams?"

"Michael."

Mary's eyes widen. She swallows suddenly feeling uneasy.

"Who is Michael?"

Dean shrugs.

"I don't know but...I think he is sad, lonely."

His fingers trail along his drawing.

"Lonely?" Mary frowned.

"I have family. He don't. He is alone. He says things."

"Such as?"

" He talks about his daddy and he said Rowena. "

"Rowena?"

Again Dean shrugs.

Dean remembered one night when he was asleep he saw Michael sitting at a table with a drink in his hand. His expression was sad and Dean heard him mutter father, brother, Rowena. Dean wanted to hear more but he ran off when the archangel turned around.

Dean has wanted to visit again. He wanted to talk to him and ask him what's wrong.

"Dean." Mary cups her son's face. "I want you to stay away from Michael."

"Why?"

"He is a stranger. You do not talk to strangers remember."

"He doesn't feel like a stranger. I...I think I know him."

"No you don't." Mary snaps. "You don't know him and you will never get to know him." Dean's eyes go wide by his mom's sudden outburst. "You stay away from him. Do not look at him do not talk to him do you understand."

Dean nods.

"Okay mommy."

The smile returns to Mary's face.

"Good boy." She puts a blank piece of paper on the table. "Why don't you draw another family picture without Michael this time."

Dean again nods.

"Okay."

Mary stands up.

"I'll be right back."

She walks into the kitchen. She gets out a lighter and sets Dean's drawing on fire. She drops it into the bin and watches as the fire consumes the paper. She watched with satisfaction as the drawing of Michael burns into nothing.

"You stay the Hell away from my son." She growled.

"Mommy!" Dean yells.

"Coming baby."

Mary picks up the bin and hides it. She then pours a glass of milk and walks out. She beams at her son and gives him the glass.

"Drink up baby." She says. "Then you can start on your drawing."

Dean nods.

"Okay mommy."

Patrick finishes up for the day. He packs his bag and tucks his cards in his pocket. After he left the bunker Patrick went straight back into business. Going town to town, playing poker and maintaining his youth. He and Rowena texted bantering with each other and she gave him updates on Dean.

Patrick looked forward to seeing the updates he wanted to know what was happening. The whole process intrigued him and in his own way he cared about Dean the hunter has been through a lot. He also strangely cared about the 'other passenger ' in Dean as well.

A knock on the door causes Patrick to sigh.

"Come in."

The door opens revealing a flash of red hair. Patrick looks over his shoulder. He pauses and his eyes go wide.

"Vampire."

Neo grins and his eyes flash blue.

"Witch." He steps into the room. "I been wanting to kill you." He bares his fangs. "Now the day has finally come."

Patrick raises his hand.

"You have a nerve coming here pal."

"Ooh voo doo hoo doo I am so scared." The vampire grins. "Get him boys."

Before Patrick could act there is suddenly the sound of glass smashing and vampires start to fill up the room. They all surround the witch and growl at him.

Patrick held his breath and looks at the glowing eyed monsters. He then looks at Neo's smirking face.

The witch knew he is screwed.
